Not to mention the dumbfounded children, even Biaotou Hu was a little puzzled: "Doudou, you asked us to come and rescue people, why don't you send them home after you rescued them?"
Dong Yuan looked at Hu Biaotou in silence: "Do you know where their families are? How can we send them back home? But we still have to take them away and send them to the government when the time comes."
When the older children heard this, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief. They just needed to send them to the government office, so that they could go home by themselves or have the government send them home. Only the younger ones, who were still ignorant, looked at their happy brothers and sisters around them with a confused look on their faces.
Hu Biaotou thought about it and it seemed to be true. Well, let's be a good person. He looked at the boys and girls in front of him and said, "Come with us."
In this way, there was a group of children on Hu Biaotou's journey. Dong Yuan spent two days with this group of people and found that although these people were big and strong, they were really good people and took good care of him.
One day later, the group arrived at Yuancheng. Looking at the gate of Yuancheng, Dongyuan frowned and sat next to Biaotou Hu: "Uncle Hu, is this Yuancheng?"
Hu Biaotou nodded: "Yes, this is Yuancheng. After passing Yuancheng, we can reach Fucheng after passing two cities. Don't worry, it will be fast."
Dong Yuan nodded: "I was captured here."
Hu Biaotou looked at Dong Yuan who seemed a little uneasy, and touched Dong Yuan's head with a smile: "Don't worry, I won't let you get caught this time."
Dong Yuan felt a little uneasy: "Tell me, does the prefect really not know what I did?"
With this reminder, Hu Biaotou's heart began to beat fast. He couldn't let anything go wrong this time. He looked at the children and said, "If he knew, sending these children back would be like sending sheep into the tiger's mouth, wouldn't it be like sending sheep into the tiger's mouth?"
When the people around Hu Baotou heard this, they thought that since things had come to this point, they couldn't just abandon so many children. But they couldn't just do it blindly: "Chief Baotou, I have an idea. Would you like to hear it?"
"You take Doudou and his servant and hide in the dark. We will send the people to the government office. If the prefect knows about Master's affairs, he may take action against us. You, the chief escort, stay outside. If we are in trouble, you can still save us."
"Plus, the things you gave me this time are of utmost importance. If they are damaged in the slightest, it will be unacceptable."
When the others heard this, they also nodded. Under everyone's persuasion, Chief Escort Hu left the team with an escort and Dong Yuan Xiao Qiang, and the team was handed over to Cheng Yu for management.
Cheng Yu is the deputy leader of the entire team. If it weren't for the important matter or the delivery to the royal palace, the chief leader would have set out together. Usually, the team is led by the deputy leader and a few escorts.
After waiting for the convoy to enter, the four of them headed towards Yuancheng. All of them were bodyguards, so they naturally had a lot of prepared passes. This was to be prepared for any eventuality. They didn't expect that they would come in handy this time.
When Cheng Yu led the team into the city, he attracted the attention of others. After all, no one had ever seen a person from the escort agency being tasked with escorting children. The appearance of so many children naturally attracted the attention of many people.
First of all, the government paid attention to them because these children were not normal, and the legal advisor was also paying attention to them. Of course, the reason he paid attention to them was that he wanted to take advantage of these children.
Just when I was thinking about how to start, I heard a yamen runner come to report: "Master, a group of escorts came with more than a hundred children, saying they want to look for the prefect."
A yamen runner came to inform the legal advisor, and someone else went to inform the prefect. The prefect of Yuancheng was named Feng Ji.
Feng Ji was puzzled when he heard the problem reported by his subordinates: "Let's go and take a look."
When Lord Feng arrived at the gate of the government office with the yamen runners, he found that the place was surrounded by people. Many citizens, who had heard that many children were brought into the city or that some families had lost their children, were heading this way.
After Lord Feng came out, the parents had already found their own children among the others and rushed over to him, "Xiaoyu, my child, it's really you."
The child named Xiaoyu was startled when she heard her mother's voice, and then she started crying aggrievedly: "Mom, I miss you so much."
Feng Ji frowned, looking at the noisy scene in front of him, and couldn't help but frown: "Who among you is the leader here? What's going on?"
While they were talking, lawyer Li Feng came out from inside, also frowning. Just as he was about to ask the bailiffs to chase the people away, Cheng Yu came out.
"My name is Cheng Yu, and I'm the deputy escort leader of the Zhenwei Escort Agency. This time we've taken on a mission to rescue these children who were abducted by human traffickers and send them to the government office. I hope the people in the government office can send these poor children home."
Upon hearing Cheng Yu's words, the master became anxious. Rescued from the hands of human traffickers? Which human trafficker? How dare he? Could it be that the child was from his other courtyard in the suburbs
When Cheng Yu was speaking, he was observing the master's expression. He found that the master's expression was very ugly, and he understood a little. However, the prefect's face was somewhat happy: "Are you serious?"
"You rescued these children from the traffickers? You really did a great thing. I want to thank you on behalf of these children. We are just sending them home. It just so happens that recently, people have been coming to say that their children are missing."
"I will go and notify these people now and ask them to check and see if there are any children of their own. If there are, take the children back. Master, please do this."
Feng Ji didn't notice the master's expression at all, immersed in his own joy. When Cheng Yu heard this, he knew that what these people said might be true. If that was the case, he would wait for the five people and hand them over after the master left.
Otherwise, he would die as soon as he handed it over, which would not be fun. Unfortunately, after listening to Feng Ji's instructions, the master did not leave to do this, but said with a gloomy face: "Sir, don't you think it's strange that they came?"
Feng Ji frowned. He had just seen the pass that Cheng Yu took out. It was indeed from the Zhenwei Escort Agency, and it was an escort from the capital to Haicheng, with proof of identity.
"What do you mean? Could it be that these people are fake? These kids are not real. If I tell you to call someone, you just go and call them."
The master would never agree to this, and said forcefully, "Sir, have you ever thought that this is something they staged themselves? These children might have been kidnapped by them, and now they can't sell them, so they come to you to seek credit."
Cheng Yu knew that he would be attacked by his advisor when he came here this time. At first he thought that the prefect was still one of their people, but now the situation has improved a lot.
"This is Master, right? I'm very curious, why do you want to wrongly accuse us? You just say we are human traffickers without any evidence? Isn't that too much? Do you have any evidence?"
The master raised his eyebrows: "Evidence? Suddenly there are so many children, but you didn't catch the traffickers. I have reason to suspect that you are the traffickers."
Cheng Yu laughed: "I really don't know, Master, you don't know how much money our Zhenwei Escort Agency makes, why would you do such a heartless thing. To be honest, people who do such heartless things will definitely die a miserable death."
Feng Ji was not stupid. He looked at Cheng Yu in front of him. It seemed that his words were directed at his master. Not to mention Feng Ji, even his master felt it and his face looked a little ugly.
"what do you mean?"
Cheng Yu laughed: "What? Master, you seem very angry. I scolded the human traffickers, why are you angry? Could it be that Master is the human trafficker?"
Feng Ji was about to tell Cheng Yu to stop talking nonsense, but the master was already furious: "Come here, arrest all these people for me. How dare they wrongly accuse me."
Cheng Yu was not panicked at all. Instead, he looked at Feng Ji and said, "If it is as I expected, then you, Lord Feng, are the prefect, right? How come it is the master who makes the decision now? Lord Feng has not even said anything, but the master can arrest people? These bailiffs are ready to take action."
This direct ridicule made Feng Ji feel a little embarrassed. What made him angry the most was that what he said made a lot of sense: "Stop it, everyone. What's wrong with you?"
The yamen runners just stopped there, hesitant, looking at the master and then at the legal advisor. It was obvious that they didn't know who to listen to. It was the legal advisor who started the fight first.
"Sir, what do you mean? Can't you hear that he is wrongly accusing me? Saying that I am a human trafficker?"
Hearing this, Cheng Yu smiled and said, "Unjust? It's a bit too early to say that. Whether it's an injustice or not depends on whether there is evidence."
The master snorted coldly: "So, you can still produce evidence?"
Cheng Yu nodded: "Of course, there is no evidence, it is a false accusation, I am just a small person, I dare not do it. First of all, sir, the master has a villa in the suburbs, there is only one villa there, no neighbors."
"It's used to detain these poor little ones who were kidnapped. Five people were assigned to guard there. If five people were to face us, they would naturally all be caught."
Hearing this, the master's heart sank: "Where is the person?"
Cheng Yu smiled: "Why? Hand them over now so you can kill them and silence them. Of course you have to hand them over to the lord personally. What do you think, lord?"
This Feng Ji seems to be quite decent. Since he has not been involved in such matters, maybe he can take this opportunity to capture the master. He should not miss such a good opportunity.
Feng Ji nodded and said, "Hand him over first, I will interrogate him."
Cheng Yu waved his hand, and a bodyguard opened the box and took out the five tied-up people. Feng Ji said, "Take them into custody first."
Just as the bailiff was about to take action, a woman's voice came: "Wait a moment."
